Interesting concept, I looked at the brief mentioned here and also wen through the word document and get a good idea of the kind of platform you are looking to develop, a platform which will bring customers (users looking for service) and truck drivers and helpers together and will let them connect, similar to how freelancer does. So the customer posts the requirement, the truck drivers put the estimate and once they agree on the price then the booking and payment is done.
As I have said its in interesting project but we will need to detail this out properly before it can be moved to development,
1 Designer, 1 Project Manager, 1 tester: Throughout the project but not full time.
MY EXPERIENCE: 10000+ hours work experience and 20+ Positive reviews:
I have actually worked with few start ups on mobile and web development projects where in the project was at concept level and the scope was detailed out based on the discussion and accordingly solution with complete flow was designed. Working out a proper scope and business rule is very important as that is what allows us to understand each user type and their interaction with the system and based on that the UI elements are created. I always suggest my clients that the project has to be thought big but developed as an MVP first as that is what helps us understand our own vision better. The way we shall start here is by creating wireframes that will give us the complete screen flow from a uses point of view.
